Yahoo! Gives Update on Home Page Testing

Yahoo! says they’re at the end of the first stage of testing their home page. As a result, they’re making 25 additional apps available for the “My Apps” section. Included are apps for Forbes.com and Wired.com.

In the works are ways to more easily access email and instant messaging. Also, the dark color that was initially used on the left sidebar didn’t test well, so now they’re testing other colors.

Testing for the new home page began last fall. Apps were actually added to the Yahoo! home page last September. An eBay app was made available last November.
